Well now the holidays are officially upon us. We had our first Thanksgiving as a new family. We got together at The Petersen house with Rod, Kris, BJ, Zoey, and Tyler. Rebecca was not able to be with us for dinner. :o( Also joining us was my brother, Justin, my parents were in Boise with my extended family but Justin had to work Friday so he couldn't go up. It was so much fun. Emma slept most of the time, she has a little head cold. The fun part was we ate in the unfinished new addition. It made for a lot more room in the kitchen for dishing our plates. Then later we played this game called "Things" its way fun for a bigger group. Hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving!!

So we had Emma's blessing day on November 1st. Brock did an amazing job! Emma's dress was make by Kris when she was pregnant with BJ, her oldest son, in hopes that one day she would have a daughter to use this dress for. Well most know that Brock only has brothers, so this dress has been waiting for a little girl to use it and Emma was the lucky first one to use it. Emma also has a special blessing day blanket that her Aunt Zoey crocheted for her, I don't have a picture of that yet but when I do I will add it to this post. They are both so beautiful!! We were happy to have so many family and friends in attendance for this special day!! Thanks to all those who helped and attended.

About Me

Emma K.

What can I say about our little Emma. She was born in Sept 2009. She's her Daddy's Sweetie, her Mommy's Princess. She is such a sweet little girl. She is very considerate, and caring of all of her family. She is a very helpful Big Sister. She sometimes thinks she is the mom and tries to boss Lexi around all the time. She is VERY literal and she can take some things very seriously, unfortunately she got that trait from me. We just love her so much. She is such a blessing in our lives.

Lexi M.

Lexi was born in May of 2013, and oh boy! is going to give us a run for our money when she gets older. She is walking and talking. She is SO funny to watch, she likes to sit on the floor and read books to herself. She speaks fluent Gibberish so well in fact that we have a hard time understanding her most of the time. She knows how to pester her sister. She definitely beats to the tune of her own drum and she likes it that way. She is so much fun! She is learning so fast that she is going to be able to keep up with her sister in no time.
